So I found out yesterday that my sister and her family are being transferred to Okinawa. OKINAWA. As in Japan. The opposite end of the freakin' world! Her hubby is a Marine. They'll be there for three years, and they probably won't be able to come home to visit 'cause it's so hard to travel with two small kids (almost 2 y/o, less than 1 y/o). I'm so sad. I'll miss my big sissy.

We just got a Logitech Quick Cam so that we can see other members of the family that are far away. Not sure if you have one but maybe it will make you feel better if you can see them. Everyone needs one though (of course).

okinawa is where my brother is stationed at(he's also a marine), he's been there for like a year and he'll be there until february when he gets to come home for good. he only got to come home once for about two weeks..it was nice having home..i really miss him

If it is in any way shape or form feasible for you to go visit them during their station - DO IT! Japan is definately worth seeing. I lived there for a year in high school, and while I wish I would have done it in college instead, was a great experience.
